Being able to prototype and test things so easily is one of the huge benefits of 3D printing, and it really shines when developing mechanical models that involve nu...

I'm sure you'll agree if that if there's one thing that's largely neglected in Halloween celebrations, it's hexagons! But together we can make the world a better place for hexagonal festivities, o...

It's nearing Halloween, and that means an excuse for ghosts, skulls, pumpkins and all the other fun things! Okay, skulls are appropriate any time of the year, but ghosts and pumpkins ...

Hi hi, wonderful people!
Sometimes you just want to make a container with a lid-flipper handle, but somehow it ends up with wheels, too! This one came about as the conjunction of two separat...

So, now there are two much larger ...
